Where have you been on a long summer's day?

Son, tell it unto me
  Dm            Am             Dm                Am
A-fishing and a-fowling in the fields and in the forest
Dm                   Bb
Weary mother, let me be
Dm                   Bb
Weary mother, let me be

Son, tell it unto me
         Dm         Am          Dm           Am
It's the blood of a hare that I killed yesterday

I killed most manfully

It's the blood of a boy that I killed yesterday

Oh, I killed him most manfully

What was between yourself and the boy?
Dm                C
Son, tell it unto me
      Dm         Am      Dm        Am
'Twas mostly the cutting down of a rod
     Dm                    Bb
That never would come to a tree
       Dm                    Bb
Oh, it never would come to a tree

Son, tell it unto me
       Dm             Am         Dm             Am
I will put my foot on board of a ship and sail away
Dm                    Bb
Sail to a foreign country
Dm                    Bb
Sail to a foreign country

What will you do with your lovely wedded wife?
Dm                C
Son, tell it unto me
        Dm              Am         Dm              Am
She can put her foot on board of a ship and follow me
Dm           Bb
Follow after me
Dm           Bb
Follow after me

Son, tell it unto me
          Dm        Am             Dm          Am
I'll give one to my father and the other to my mother
   Dm             Bb
To keep them company
       Dm             Bb
Oh, to keep them company

I will lay them bare to the birds and the air
        Dm                  Bb
There's no more welcome for me
            Dm                  Bb
Oh, there's no more welcome for me
 
[Verse]
Dm                      C
What will you do in the winter of your life?
Dm                C
Son, tell it unto me
       Dm           Am           Dm          Am
Like a sally in the rock, I will bend in the wind
    Dm                    Bb
And pray for the gods' mercy
        Dm                    Bb
Oh, and pray for the gods' mercy

Oh, and pray for the gods' mercy

Oh, and pray for the gods' mercy

Oh, and pray for the gods' mercy
